Photo of Dutch VIN plate on headstock

Post by Kijmpe »

For the restoration of my J-model I am looking for the right VIN plate for the headstock.

On mine, some previous owner welded a metal strip containing two M8 holes on the headstock, probably to mount a fairing.

In doing so he or she removed the genuine aluminium VIN plate and doing that almost damaged the frame number welding right next to it.

The bike has an original Dutch registration, registered in Holland on the 24th of april 1972.

I am looking for a photo of the original VIN plate for a Dutch J-model so I can order the right one through Ebay to complete my restoration.

Thanks in advance for any information on this subject.

Hi Rodent,

Thnx for that, but I already found various manufacturers that can deliver the replica plate.

My question is which plate is the replica of the original one for my bike.

So maybe someone on this forum has got a similar J-model from the Netherlands (or imported one from Holland) and is willing to post a photo of his VIN plate.

Go on to the facebook GT750 owners pages. There are Dutch members on there who can probably help
